WAKE UP AFRICAN PEOPLE PRESENTS DR, UMAR JOHNSON ...
Dr. Umar Johnson suggested that the American Psychiatric Association’s “Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders” has it all wrong when it describes the acronym ADHD as standing for “attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.” Instead, Johnson proposed that ADHD really means “ain’t dad at home disorder” or “ain’t discipline at home disorder.” He told his audience that the real cause of psychiatric ADHD diagnosis in black boys is the absence of a strong black heterosexual male as a parent at home.
“My father worked as an Army drill sergeant,” Johnson said. “As a result, neither I nor my brothers had psychiatric ADHD.”
He added that the “true solution” to learning disabilities in black students is having strong black heterosexual males as teachers in lieu of having white women filling these positions.
